So I'm getting into fights on FB about Covid.

Thousands of University of Alabama football fans partied in the street near campus, despite the ongoing pandemic.
STORY: https://bit.ly/38EXNV6

Me-Two weeks and number of Covid cases are going to skyrocket.

This Sam guy-That’s what they keep saying but never happens!

My reply- Have you been under a rock for over a year?

No answer yet, but you know one is coming.

Add: this isn't the only one.

because of how their lungs were attacked.

Covid can't be ignored. It is dangerous! But yet there are those that are just stupid.

I can't stand to watch the deceptive crap on Fox anymore, only getting some pieces of it here or there (mostly from DU).

He may have no awareness of the REALITY of the pandemic at all?
